yanman is a avid fan of not having system restore on as he thinks it wastes sooo much space :whistle: anyway 200mb is alot :whistle:

why not stretch your taskbar up to the side or make it bigger, then grab the handles and move back into place.

Change you resolution so that it stretches the task bar.

lol... i'm not an avid fan of not using system restore because it wastes space, think about it, if only like 40% or something of the time system restore works, it's just pointless leaving it on (i read this somewhere too) but oh well, if it works for some people, then great (Y)

btw, thanks for posting a fix... i'll save that just incase

40% of the time it works? Nah man.

Man, for me and most of the incopetant users i have to help and manage, its around 99% that it works.

Teaching how to use the System Restore wisely and deleting old restore points is easy(disk cleanup) and only using a small amount of disk space (minimum on most systems is 200mb) then in the world of 160gig drives, is 200mb so much i ask to make and repair a system to a previous state when it was working?

Its not much man, choose as you please, but myself and others will say in these forums where they have done in the past that System Restore have saved their asses and whom really gives a **** about 200mb if it saves you.

Anyhoos.

    • Mastodon updates terms of service to ban AI model training on user data by David Uzondu Mastodon has updated its terms of service to explicitly prohibit scraping its platform to train artificial intelligence models. The new rules, which kick in on July 1, make it perfectly clear that using automated tools to slurp up user data from its main server, Mastodon.social, for LLM training is a big no-no. Neowin received a copy of an email sent to users, notifying them of the change, which introduces new language prohibiting the "scraping of user data for unauthorized purposes, e.g., archival or large language model (LLM) training." Here's a snippet from the updated terms of service: This policy change comes at a time when users are getting increasingly ###### off about their public posts becoming free fuel for the AI gold rush. In fact, this is probably good news for the same crowd over on Bluesky that freaked out after a massive, user-traceable dataset of their public posts was compiled and uploaded for AI research. AI bot scraping has become a huge problem for everyone from giants like Reddit, which is now suing Anthropic, makers of Claude, for training on its posts without a license, to even Neowin readers, like Gerowen, who noted how a swarm of bots, including one Claudebot (you don't say!), hammered his personal server with over 700,000 requests in 24 hours, putting a huge strain on his "home NAS running on an old PC tower in the back woods of Kentucky." It is important to remember that Mastodon is a federated network. These new terms apply specifically to the Mastodon.social server, which is operated directly by Mastodon gGmbH. This means that while users on the main instance are now protected, those on other independent servers in the "fediverse" will only get the same protection if their instance administrators adopt similar terms. The company is globally enforcing a new minimum age requirement of 16 for all users, raising it from the previous limit of 13.
    • Keep in mind that updates for it end on Oct 13, 2026. While this may not matter much for those who don't care about features, it might for fixes, and it certainly would for security.
